Product Description
NGA-586
Sirenza Microdevices NGA-586 is a high performance InGaP/
GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor MMIC Amplifier. A
Darlington configuration designed with InGaP process
technology provides broadband performance up to 5.5 GHz with
excellent thermal perfomance. The heterojunction increases
breakdown voltage and minimizes leakage current between
junctions. Cancellation of emitter junction non-linearities results
in higher suppression of intermodulation products. At 850 Mhz
and 80mA , the NGA-586 typically provides +39.6 dBm output
IP3, 19.8 dB of gain, and +18.9 dBm of 1dB compressed power
using a single positive voltage supply. Only 2 DC-blocking
capacitors, a bias resistor and an optional RF choke are required
for operation.
